问题     Tight-lipped elders used to say, "It’s not what you want in this world, but what you get." Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.
    You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be served.
    Likewise, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself. In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your services.
    This account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education, experience and references. Such an account is valuable. It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews. While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications will pay him to employ you and your "wares" and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner.
    When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something tangible to sell. Then you are ready to hunt for a job. Get all the possible information about your could-be job, make inquiries as to the details regarding the job and the firm. Keep your eyes and ears open, and use your own judgement. Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now. [br] A blueprint made before inviting a friend to dinner is used in this passage as______.
选项 A、an illustration of how to write an application for a job
B、an indication of how to secure a good job
C、a guideline for job description
D、a principle for job evaluation
答案 A
解析 本题中，B项“如何获得一份好工作的暗示”不是作者使用该例子的目的。本文作者提倡的是“要现实，不要想那些不合乎情理的东西”。C项“描述工作的方针”不是作者使用该例子的目的，文中没有描述过工作。D项“评估工作的原则”之意不是作者使用该例子的目的，文中并没有评估过工作。从文章第3段的内容可知，如果我们想请朋友吃饭，我们就要定菜谱，列购物清单，并决定先做哪道菜；对于要招待的任何一种饭局来说，这样的计划都是必要的；从第4段的内容可知，同样，如果你想找到一份工作，你就应该取一张纸，写下你的自我简介。据此可知，作者列举请朋友吃饭前所制订的计划这个例子，是为了说明找工作时应该怎样制订计划这个问题。A项的“如何写求职申请的例证”与文章的意思相符，因此A项为正确答案。
